the night an attendant gave Mrs. Gall
an overdose of morphine tablets and her
death followed next morning.

The February Report —Feb. recorded
a heavy decline in nearly all the oil
field", and its figures on new wells, new
production, etc., are the smallest in
several years. The causes can be
ascribed to the severe weather, the
lower market and the scarcity of desir
able territory.
In the Pennsylvania oil districts 95
fewer wells were completed in February
than in January, and there was a drop
of 1,220 barrels in the new production.
